Pan that Palette

Hey guys,
this is a bit of a different post from all of the book reviews, as you can see by the title.
I came across a video on YouTube of a small channel which was talking about a makeup challenge. Before I knew it I watched maybe 10 videos on a row by different small youtubers.
So, basically the challenge is to use a product, in this case a palette, completely: literally to hit the pan. It seems like a fun thing to try out, even though most of the girls were complaining how boring the got as they progressed through their palettes, because they had to do the same look every day. However, as I suck at makeup and I don't really feel comfortable wearing  bold eye shadow, I don't think I will have that problem.
The reasons for me to take part in it are mainly two. Firstly, I have thrown away a lot of mostly unused makeup, because I think I will use it and I just don't. After which sometimes I feel guilty for throwing away money. Secondly, I want to learn to apply makeup better, because all I do right now is just the basics: some slightly darker on the crease and a shimmer all over the lid, some mascara after that and I'm good to go. And I want to try out some more colors, as I currently stay on the natural side.
The palette I'm going to be using through this challenge is Fortune Favors the Brave by Makeup Revolution. I got it in December for my birthday and
I haven't cleaned it intentionally so you can see that I've already used some of the shades on the photo, but nothing major. I'm starting the challenge with some dents on the colors Buffer, Creme and Sunset Hour.

PanThatPalette: Update #1

Hey guys, I think it's time for an update on the Pan That Palette Challenge. It's not going great actually, because most days I don't feel like putting on makeup before work. At first I was motivated and wanted to make progress as fast as possible but when I wake up in the mornings it's not on my priority list. I've hit a pan only on one color as you can see from the photo. And I've made my peace with the fact I'm not going to really use about 5 colors, which are Skylight, Transformer, Midnight Rainbow, Smoothie and Blacqua. I've tried to incorporate them in some looks but they're just too dark. And I suck at makeup so it's extra hard for me to not look like clown and a mess while wearing these colors. However, I did use all of the colors at some point even if just to take it off again in a few minutes, which in a way is a milestone for me, because I would never even think to put on black eye shadow. Now as to what I think about he palett...

Book Review: The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

“Better never means better for everyone... It always means worse, for some.”  Hey guys, it's time for another book review, as the 2018 Reading Challenge is going great. This is the fifth book that I've read in January. As you know I read Alias Grace by Atwood at the beginning of the month and I was amazed by the story and the writing. Unfortunately, this didn't happen with The Handmaid's Tale. GoodReads Summary: Offred is a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead. She may leave the home of the Commander and his wife once a day to walk to food markets whose signs are now pictures instead of words because women are no longer allowed to read. She must lie on her back once a month and pray that the Commander makes her pregnant, because in an age of declining births, Offred and the other Handmaids are valued only if their ovaries are viable. Offred can remember the years before, when she lived and made love with her husband, Luke; when she played with and protected her...

Book Review: 24 Girls in 7 Days by Alex Bradley

Hey guys, I think by now, with total two of my book reviews, it's been established that I start my book reviews with a standout quote from the book. Not it this case. Why? Because it f****** sucked. Now you may ask yourselves why did I bother to read it? I read the book in two days, which isn't because it was sooo amazing and I couldn't put it down. It was because it was an extremely easy and quick read. And as I mentioned I've set a reading goal - 50 books in a year. And the best summarization of this book is this: It starts promising and fails miserably. Spoilers The first few chapters were funny and entertaining. The style was also good, and the direction which it was going seemed quite full with potential, but it missed the mark a big time. So, the plot is this as posted on GoodReads:  There are few things sadder than Jack Grammar's love life. So when his friends take it upon themselves to get him a date to the prom by placing an intensel...
